A town's museum has had to close temporarily due to a lack of volunteers.Chatteris Museum in Cambridgeshire, which is usually open for three days a week, is desperate to attract more volunteers – particularly those who can work front of house.The museum has 23 volunteers, but not all of them want to work as "meet and greeters".
The situation meant it was unable to open on Friday last week.Andrew Spooner, part of the museum's management team, said that without more volunteers, its future could be in doubt.
Mr Spooner's wife Sue, 68, who is also part of the management team, said: "Last week was a unique situation for us in that we didn't have any volunteers to open the museum to the public in the role we call 'front of house', where they meet and greet visitors.
"I think it is difficult for people [to volunteer], particularly on Friday mornings and Saturday afternoons, with [their] other commitments."Since then, AfD has been classified as extremist by Germany's domestic intelligence service - although the public designation was paused pending a legal challenge.

Subsequent contact with the AfD or Alice Weidel, she added, would be seen as a provocation by Germany."That would be DEFCON 1 for the bilateral," she said.
